How to manage my tremendously growing boobs after an abortion?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I had an abortion a month ago, for the second time. Previously I had abortion before nine months. However, my boobs grew tremendously and my pants do not fit anymore even after a month. Is this normal? I did not eat more than I usually do during the short pregnancy (approximately seven weeks). Is it due to fluid accumulation? Currently I am taking tablet Adderall.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I have gone through the details presented by you and I fully understand your concern. Please tell me exactly how much is the growth to decide if it is normal or require any investigation. During pregnancy the estrogen and progesterone levels raises and results in breast growth. This can be considered normal if it is a mild increase in size. Also the abortion was in seventh week and if it is complete or not that is also important if you feel that there is still breast growth taking place. Please do not worry, share the exact size growth and also if you feel it is continuously growing, I am always there for you to help. Please also share if there is any itching or change in colour of the nipples.
